SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.

fIOUR - we quote net cash prices for
California: Best Family, So 90@4 10 p Dbl {;
Bakers extra. IS SOFAS 90; Superfine, 81 90@3 90
WHEAT-Parties identified with grain inter-
ests feel much encouraged by the recent i'm
provement that has occurred in the situation
abroad. The outlook for local business is much
better than it was a month or so ago. Export
operations have been renewed, though on a
limited scale, while there is promise of enlarg-
ing movement in this direction. No ! shipping
grades are quotable at 81 30 q ctl under active
inquiry, while millers pay 81 s. and more for
selected parcels.
BARLEY-Liberal receipts continue to be the
rule, while trade shows no improvement. Buy
ers take just about enough to satisfy present ne
cess1tes, and these are not pressing if leisurely
purchasing be any criterion. For feed of the
better quality S5c is the general asking figure,
but custom Is very slow at anything over S214 p
ctl. Brewing is expected to receive more atten-
ton in the near future. Within week there
have been shipments to New York by way of
the Horn as well as Panama, and ship was
chartered yesterday that will take considerable
Brewing and Chevalier Barley as part of cargo.
This Will relieve the market somewhat even if
it does not create activity. In the present CON
ditlon of the market, dealers are grateful for
any on side trade, no matter how small, that
viii tend to lower stocks at hand. Brewing
ranges in price from 81 to 81 02l5 4 ctl. Holders
of Cheyaller have had to carry stock simply
because OF the absence OF buyers. Growers OF
the better qualities generally look to foreign
sources for the disposal of their product but this
class of custom has been notably light the
present season. However, something may vet
develop in favor of sellers before long. At the
moment the market must be quoted as nominal
at 81 23Gl 30 for standard; fair to good bay,
s1@l 20; fair to good coast S5@e9Oc p ctl.
OATS-Considerable attention is bestowed ON
exhibited samples on Change, and product that
is of de;irsbie quality finds ready sale. Prices
generally are steady, and the situation is
shaping fsyorably tor sellers. We quote

CORN-Arrivals of Yellow are fair, but trade
is not quick and prices are soft. 1t would be
at oyerS1 III ? ctl. White may be said to be
nominal, as operators are wide apart in their
views. A very choice lot has been offering for
some days at 81 So, while less desirable article
is held at 81 80, though in neither case has a
sale resulted

SEEDS-The market for Yellow Mustard is
unfsvorabie for sellers. Receipts are free and
holders are willing to make concessions. Choice
Brown is not to be found in market, and an ar
rival to suit would likely sell above our quota
tons. Offerings of Brown, anyhow, are small,
while inferior as to quality. We quote prices
as follows Mustard, Brown, 81 50dS; Yellow.
